Publisher Note
Goran Tomasevic is a reportage photographer Goran Tomašević. He has not only survived thirty years in crisis zones, he has also mastered the art of photography by interpreting the world in the most humanistic way possible, walking in the footsteps of Robert Capa and James Nachtwey.
“This powerful, terrible book conveys a Dantesque vision of our humanity. The current circumstances, this morning in Ukraine, make us believe that this madness will never stop and will continue to break our hearts. Admiration for Goran Tomašević, a wonderful Caravaggio of photography!” Francis Kochert
Goran Tomašević never became detached from his Serbian origins. On the contrary, although he was fascinated by Africa and the Middle East, he started out by covering the situation in Croatia and Bosnia in 1991, taking commissions from the local press. He dedicated his work mainly to the deep crisis that raged in the region – between NATO bombings and anti-Milošević demonstrations.
“If you want to make the facts authentic, you have to be where they are. So that’s the challenge. But it’s harder,” he says in an interview, “when the stories are happening in your home. That’s what hurts the most.”
